I recently revamped my Volume Thrasher V1. The old school style build was fun, but it was time to optimize it for better tricks and really deck it out to feel the best it can. After building it up I caught a session with the boys and got hurt pretty bad. Enjoy!
Side note, this is like the 3rd video involving a Thrasher V1 that we’ve thrown on the blog this week, wild coincidence.
Volume just upped a beautiful new Patina colorway for the classic Volume Cutter frame! While I’ve not been loving all the special edition colorways they’ve been dropping (splatter isn’t my thing), I think this is easily their best special edition colorway yet. I love rusty looking bikes so this is a great gritty choice. More details here!
Chris’ first web edit! Although it’s just from a single session, we take those. Satoshi got out with Chris in the good ol’ CA sunshine and captured some nice certified hood classic Chris combos. Adding some smooth music and good filming goes a long way too, very fun watch.
Shoutout to Volume and Resist for picking Chris up!

Volume keeping the new colors coming. This run has the Thrasher available in an iridescent sparkle half tone with the “Prismatic Universe” colorway and the Cutter in a Spiderman style Red/Blue half tone. I’m really digging that sparkle on both frames. Check them out here!
Volume just dropped some limited edition Green + Black Thrashers! These go hard and I think is one of the coolest versions of the Thrasher we’ve seen. Seems inspired by Matt’s custom paint job from 2012. Snag one here!
Got a care package recently from Resist, much needed after busting up my bike in Europe! Big thanks to Resist for the constant support and keeping me rolling. Some of the lovely items in my package include:
One of the hardest working dudes in the scene Chris Alzona is now on the flow team for Resist and Volume! Chris, your hard work has not gone unnoticed and I’m personally super stoked to see him come up on this partnership. Trick Track split edit soon?
Demolition just unveiled their brand new 26″ rim, the Zero rim! Demolition makes some of the best 20″ BMX rims so I can only expect the same quality coming from their bigger counterpart. This is great news for us as our 26″ quality rim options start to dwindle down. Here’s what Demoltion has to say about these:
“Our Zero rim has been around over a decade due to it’s strength and lightweight construction. It is now available in 26″ with a double-wall design, 2 vertical ribs and welded seam for more rigidity!
At $80-$110 per rim, this is an expensive but quality option for serious tricks. Remember though, you get what you pay for. Check them out here!
Resist just dropped their two recent forks in a black colorway! Buying the 26″ version gets you a free pair of pegs too. At $169, that’s not a bad deal at all. Cop the 700c version here and the 26″ version here!
